began a brand new journey. for all of us at the fox report, congratulations to julie and congratulations to julie and andy and thanks for watching. captioned by closed captioning services, inc. ♪ >> ladies and gentlemen, governor mike huckabee. [applaus [applause]. >> mike: am i supposed to be out here right now? i'm not governor mike huckabee. i'm not george w. bush either. but i'd like to welcome you to-- what is that guy's name? huckabee. ladies and gentlemen, mike

huckabee, the governor. break it out. [applaus [applause]. >> mike: hey, frank, how are you? >> how are you? >> i'm doing great. so we have you on the show today. >> yes, i will be here. >> mike: which means we have dozens of people on the show today. >> that's correct. >> mike: would you like a preview. >> how about some of this and what were you thinking? very odd, very weird and let's get going, i want to see jon voight. >> mike: frank cal yella will be on our show, look forward to seeing you in a few minutes. frank. thank you so much. and also tonight, he says president obama is trying to change america, but maybe not the change you bargained for. outspoken conservative actor jon voight will be here to tell us why he's become so involved and he'll give us his take on health care reform. and they're one of the top christian music bands in the

world, but recording platinum albums and selling out concerts not their only job. they're also youth counselors who try to keep teenagers on the right path. grammy award winning casting crowns purchase one of their biggest hits here on the show tonight. well, this weekend, funeral services were held for senator ted kennedy and with his burial, the end of a long and storied senate career. though there were many controversy over the issues in his personnel life, he was true to his personnal political convictions, he didn't try to reinvent himself with each owe lex or poll and proudly proclaimed himself a liberal when most ran from the label. i respect people who are honest in their own political leanings far more than those who change with the season. no one can accuse ted kennedy of campaigning differently than he served norman he believed. my experience has been that you can work with a principal liberal far more effectively than a n unpresident clintoned conservative who is more about the political game of winning

than actually solving problem. a government like ours isn't always neat and pretty and rarely does it give everybody everything they want. but it works. because like the airplane with both wings attached to the fuselage, it has balance that keeps it from the torque of one engine putting it into a death spiral. i once sat alongside ted kennedy at a senate hearing where both of us were testifying, in support of a bill that continued a federal state partnership for families whose children had severe developmental disabilities. now, here were two men, as far apart in every way has two men could be. one from a wealthy powerful catholic family from big city boston. the other, from a poor working class baptist family from a small town in arkansas. he was caviar and cape cod. i was cornbread and catfish, but on that day, our vast differences found common ground

to make sure that families who were struggling to care for a severely disabled child didn't have to become impoverished in order to receive care for their child. there are already attempts to politicize and capitalize on his death for calls hurriedly enacting government run health care as a tribute to him. i spoke about it thursday on my radio commentary, the huckabee report, heard on 500 radio stations across america. i pointed out that when senator kennedy was diagnosed with terminal cancer, he chose to fight with all that was within him and to do that for life, instead of choosing the pain pill that president obama spoke of in his answer to james stern during hits white house town hall meeting. george stephanopoulos, time magazine, huffington post and scores of liberal bloggers have gone berserk, calling me everything imaginable and saying i had made things up. well, here is my challenge to

fwo george, time magazine and anyone else. go to my website, mike huckabee..com click on the huckabee report and listen to the commentary for thursday, august 27th. now, listen to this comment from president obama during the telecast that george's oun network aired. >> what we can do is make sure that at least some of the waste that exists in the system that's not making anybody's mom better, that is loading up on additional tests or additional drugs, that the evidence shows is not necessarily going to improve care that at least we can let doctors know and your mom know that you know what, maybe this going to help. maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the pain killer. >> mike: my challenge, what did i say that wasn't true? in fact, listen to what i said. it was actually a tribute to

senator kennedy and an observation that he did what americans would want to do. follow the best health care they can find. and we don't want the government telling us to go home a take a pain pill and die. unless someone think we took these out of comment. let me play something the opening and closing answer about the 105-year-old mother and acknowledged it's a form of rationing by medicaid, medicare and private insurance. >> i don't want bureaucracies making those decisions, but understand that those decisions are already being made in one way or another. if they're not being made under medicare, and medicaid, they're being made by private insurers. >> mike: at the end he says the decision is between a patient and his doctor. >> we're not going to solve every single one of these very difficult decisions at end of life and ultimately that's going to be between physicians and patients. >> mike: as it should be. well, the irony is that the

final months of senator kennedy's life are the very reason we shouldn't let government take us to the polo, barack obama barney frank. when diagnosed at age 77 with breast cancer -- with brain cancer, he didn't take a pain pill. he did what we would do, went to the best medical facilities in the world and sought surgery and sought to live as long as possible. that's what americans are trying to tell congress, we aren't looking for the cheapest health care, but the best. and we know everyone can't everything, but let us and our family decide that. not the government. and by the way, the program that senator kennedy and i were testifying for that day is the approach that congress should be taking, government involvement when no private option exist and which provides for those who have exhausted all their options. if america wants to truly honor the senator make it possible for everyone to have the kind of

care that he had in his final months. that's my view and if you'd like to share yours, you can contact me at mike huckabee.com. click on the fox news feedback link. well, my first guest says the obama administration is trying to force government run health care upon american citizens who don't want it. please welcome academy award winning actor jon voight. [applaus [applause] >> hi, guys. >> hello, jon. >> hello, governor. boy, isn't it nice? nice to see you all. it's great to be, you know, it's great to be with you patriotic americans. >> mike: you've got a great fan club here.

now? >> well, i've lived a little bit of life and i've made, you know, made a mistake or two, learned some less sops and by this time i can see things a little clearer and i see the dangers where they are and as a citizen of this country, you know, we've given this freedom and encouragement to speak out when we see troubles brewing and i'm just you know, just being the citizen that i would like other people to be. >> mike: but, you've had some remarkable statements that i've listened to and said, that's powerful. you've talked about the need of this country to pay attention to where we're headed, down a path that really is the equivalent of, i think you've used the term, jon, civil unrest. what do you mean by na? >> well, we're in a situation where, obviously, at this hour, we're being-- the american people are being

forced to do something they don't want to do. let me say this, i'm here to validate all the millions of people who are opposed to the obama health care. [applaus [applause] >> we're witnessing-- we're witnessing a slow and steady takeover of our true freedoms. we're becoming a socialist nation and obama is causing civil unrest in this country. what's going on, well, we see, first of all, that the stimulus panning dependent wo-- package didn't work and now we see the government taking over banks, taking over car companies, insurance, we're told what cars we can drive, what--

how much we can make and now they want to take control of our health care and tell us what doctors we can see and what treatments we can have and the american-- >> i want to talk about specifically health care. how president obama is invoking god into the discussion. >> let me, let me get to that. >> mike: we need to take a break and when we get back. that's where we'll start. i want to hear this because i think you've got some powerful views that we need to hear and that's where we are going to start when we come back. jon voight stays with us. i hope you do, too. >> he's so professional. specially formulated to promote hairball control and healthy weight. friskies indoor wet cat food. feed the senses. body wash from olay. tone enriching ribbons. two separate ribbons. the white cleanses. the gold moisturizes and has a touch of mineral shimmer to enhance skin's tone. olay tone enriching body wash.

(applaus (applause) >> we're back with jon voight. a star with successful acting

career and he's not acting regarding his passion and concerns you have regarding the health care bill. >> i was saying, people don't want this. they don't want the government into their lives in this way and they're happy with the health care they have. but it seems that obama has made this a personal crusade now and if it's successful, if he brings this off, it will be his personal triumph. he says and keeps repeating, tht know about me, this is not about me, he says that, but as we can see, it really is about him and he's air gapt-- arrogant and that he's going to get this passed no matter the outcry and trying everything, even the so-called god card. if you love god, he tells us, if you love god, then it's your duty to vote this health care bill in. >> he did a conference call, jon, with a thousand ministers last week and if president bush

had done that or others had done that, they would have been casty gaited for invoking the god card, that he did that and the liberal press sort of said that's okay if he does that? well, i say that they're taking away god's first gift to man, our free will and it's-- (applaus (applause) >> and no man, no matter what his title, if he's even president of the united states, has the consent of god to decide that he's dpod. >> you said something to me earlier that i thought was very powerful. you voted thomas seoul who i think is one of the most brilliant minds in america today. >> yes, he is. >> mike: something he said that i want to-- oh, you have it. because i think that it's very powerful. >> it appears and you know, people, you know, some people said to me, now, you're getting on the old side, a lot of that stuff is getting on the old side. when i was in transformers and

the director said we are going to run 50 feet or something like that through one of the vehicles, to escape from the transformer and he says, you know, very sensitive, do you think you can do that? oh, my god, i'm not that bad. and of course, and people say to me, how can you read? i write big. but anyway, i want to read this quote and this is what this great man, one of the wisest of our fellows have said. this african-american writer, what they are trying to do is create an america very unlike the america that has existed for centuries. the america that people have been attracted to by the millions from all over the world, the america that many generations of americans have fought and died for. the thing associated with ameri

america, freedom, is precisely what must be destroyed if this is to be turned into a fundamentally din country-- different country to suit obama's vision of the country and of himself. >> mike: that's a powerful statement. thomas sole, a great thinker and writer. jon, i want to thank you for coming and being here today. especially for your courage. you've been outspoken, you've been clear. we need voices of clarity and conscience. you've been one and i want to thank you for being a part of it. thank you. >> and i want to say to the governor if i can just say to this. i want to say to the governor. try it again, we need a man like you. >> mike: thank you, jon, great to have you here (applause) >> jon voight. frank caliendo and all of his

pastor work. >> we're leading the worship, on teenagers and their families and that's what god called us to do. >> mike: you've been pressured to make this a full-time thing and go on the road. why have you chosen to stay in the ministry of a local church with all of that kind of pressure and obviously, the financial rewards would be dramatic if you did this all the time? >> well, i believe that the music we sing comes from the ministry we have in the church. i think if we were to disconnect from the church and live on a bus we wouldn't be connected to people and wouldn't sing songs about the people we're with every day of the week and also, i think all the nobleness aside it's helping us to be plugged into the people that know you, you're not reading your website too much. you're plugged into people that aren't impressed with you anymore, known you a year or two. >> mike: and you're talking to kids with real problems and facing what they're dealing with and the pressures. does that impact the way you approach your music. >> it does. when we sing songs we try to be

transparent. when you're coming from above, it's hard to approach somebody, but when you realize they've got problems like they do, you have your warts and blemishes, it's easier to hear from a real person. >> mike: what amazes me, you're one of the few bands ever that have been invited into north korea. how on earth did a christian band get invited to north korea? >> it really was a god thing, for us, grs is global resource services, nongovernmental agency that is working to establish a friendship between our countries through humanitarian aid and work with hospitals, agriculture and feeding families in the country and so when we went over to be part of a festival that north korea holds every year, we were going to really strengthen that bond between grs and the government there because the closer grs is to the government and friendship, the more people they can reach and it just helped that friendship grow stronger which helps our friendship grow stronger as well. >> mike: what is the biggest surprise in north korea, what

shocked utmost? >> for us, all we know is what we hear and it's a big dark place and all we know the leadership and what we don't agree with and the terrible things you hear and when you land, you meet people and suddenly north korea becomes ming and lee and people to us and the personal relationships helped us to i think, love them better and just to understand they're in a tough place and they need help and we can't write everything off because we don't agree with leadership, we've got to love the people that are there. >> and mark, when you were there did they ask you to maybe dial it down a notch in terms of the lyrics of the songs. they're blatantly christian songs. did they ask you to do like with ed sullivan. >> no dancing allowed? we were surprised they called us because we're not hiding from anything, it's right out there in front and so we were a little concerned that they maybe hadn't heard our music and every time they heard a song, the invitation stood. when we got there we were

waiting to maybe be shut down a little bit, but they let us sing our soppinngs. we sang amazing grace and we want today hear a traditional folk song and thought that's traditional and sang it and actually had one of the guides come to us and say, i've been hearing that song since i was a kid, but we never knew there were words. and we got to write the words to amazing grace and give them to him, they were amazing moments. >> mike: will you get to go back to north korea, is that a possibility? >> we've been twice and what we were hearing as we were leaving, invited us into the radio station to record a song in korean and say you have a standing invitation to be here so it's a great thing to have some sort of connection with that country as tensions build here and there just to have one connection, maybe it's helping in a little way. >> mike: tell kim jong-il we all said hey. we are going to come back with mark and all the band of casting crowns and when we do, they are going to let me sit in with them on a song, i hope it doesn't keep you from buying their music

because i promise, some of the most phenomenal and dynamic music you're ever going to hear and we are going to be back with casting crowns right after this. stay with us. hear. my name is chef michael. and my dog bailey and i love to hang out in the kitchen... so she can watch me cook. you just love the aromas of beef tenderloin...

(applause) >> we're back with casting kroups and mark, we were talking before about the things in korea, but i want it talk about specifically your music and you've had a huge impact so many people, particularly younger audiences love your music and i want to ask you about the song we are going to do the voice of truth. tell me, what is that song really saying, what's it about? >> coming up through middle school and high school i've dealt with dyslexia and add. d dyslexia means you didn't read good. add, if you did read is good, it

didn't matter. school and church was tough. and god had a different idea for my life than i did, to be up in front of people and i didn't know what to do with that. i had to sort through the idea that god doesn't need me, but that he wants me and it really had to change the way i think and that god said to paul, he said my grace decision for you and power is made perfect in your weakness. and that's where this song became real for me. >> mike: it's called voice of truth and download this one, but in november, they have a new cd, we hope we'll get them back to sing songs from it. let's get to it, "voice of truth." it.
